How’s this for some Monday morning news: Netflix just announced a Magic: The Gathering animated series from the Russo Brothers! That’s a wild headilne, but you read that right. The guys behind the biggest Marvel movies (Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, to name a few) are spearheading the animated adaptation of one of the most (the most?) popular CCG of all time. There are no words to describe the anticipation and excitement–except that’s a lie. There are words, and those words appear in the form of tweets.

We don’t know much about the Magic animated series just yet. So far we only know that Marvel masterminds the Russos are involved, as are Wizards of the Coast (the game publisher behind the card game) and Hasbro’s Allspark Animation. Additionally, Henry Gilroy (Star Wars Rebels) and Jose Molina (Firefly, Star Wars: The Clone Wars) will write and act as co-executive producers. While we don’t know the plot, any characters, or voice actors involved, there’s still plenty for fans to get excited about–and they got excited.

Here are a few tweets from M:TG players old and new alike that capture all the feels.

I hope that Magic the Gathering anime shows up on Netflix as a bunch of random scenes. You're served up 7 scenes but can only play them if you have enough Land.

The idea of a Russo-brothers led Magic: The Gathering animated series for Netflix sounds like a Mad Libs centered specifically on my interests. Such a strange, HYPE as FUCK announcement. pic.twitter.com/qHt6HPnI7l

Netflix is doing a @wizards_magic animated series written by writers of Star Wars Rebels and The Tick, and executive produced by the directors of Avengers: Endgame (and Infinity War, and the last two Captain America movies). Yeah, I think I'm looking forward to that.
